A Celebration of Orange

Non-SAQA
Exhibition

Each winter, the days grow shorter, darkness envelopes more hours of the day, and color drains away from our natural landscape. Just as the ancients celebrated the winter solstice with rituals designed to encourage the sun’s return, this exhibit of 29 quilts honors the sun with a study of the color orange in both historic and contemporary quilts. Orange was originally called yellow-red or “geoluhread” in Old English.
